I don't think it makes sense to measure/set fit for this bra the way one typically might, due to it being a compression sports bra, but here's the lowdown:
QUALITY: I have two of these bras, and have had them for over two years now. I use them mostly for high-impact sports stuff - trail running, lifting, etc - but before I found a way to affordably get real bras in my size, or even had an inkling what my size was, I used these as my everyday bras. Even with daily wear for like a year, they haven't failed, and I still wear them on the first hook. ... The elastic is still snug and the fabric is still compressing, although the tendency toward monoboob has increased over the years. One small gripe: on the website you'll see it claimed that these have "moulded cups" which is not true - there's a nice inner lining with space for each boob, but they aren't moulded by any definition.
COMFORT/FIT: Minimizing, compressing, suprisingly comfortable, utterly locked n loaded. Technically, Moving Comfort offers between 30 and 40 in band sizes but only A-E in cups, but as a 30F, the 30DD works fine for me (and I like a very firm band). So people with 28 bands and cup sizes up to a G who aren't into the Freya/Panache wired sports bras might give this one a spin.
APPEARANCE: At a time when my boobs were a big source of stress - I didn't know how to find bras to fit them, I didn't know what size I was, I thought I was some kind of strange monster for not fitting into the foam-laden 32Ds VS folks insisted were my size - these bras allowed me to just put my tits on lockdown and pretend like it wasn't a problem, and for that, I thank them. Aside from the tendency toward monoboob these can give after a while, they're super compressive and let you feel hella athletically shaped when you're doing your deadlifts or cruisin' through your local running trail.
IDEAL USES: high impact sporting, or low-impact sporting if you like a lot of support - I've done tons of bouncy stuff in these, from running to trampoline jumping to rock-hopping, and experienced virtually no boob-jarring
